well if Macheda and Bebe cant even make it on the bench for this then they might as well pack their bags and do one right now

In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik (@Rood) is joined by CEO Duncan Drasdo and Financial Director Andy Green from the Manchester United Supporters Trust for a special episode on all things behind the scenes at Old Trafford including a brief history of MUST and their aims today, views on INEOS and Sir Jim Ratcliffe so far, and the Old Trafford regeneration.
Think that's the idea.
Looking forward to seeing Vermijl I think he has a decent chance if he can build up his strength a bit hes a real Denis Irwin style consistent defender
I wouldn't be so sure about that.
Generaly speaking though I must say I'm dissapointed neither Petrucci nor Henriquez are in the squad.
That was before the team was posted, smartass.
Tough to call, clev and welbeck could easily go wide, with Rooney and Hernandez up top. Can see fergie wanting to protect the defence more and go for 3 in the middle. I'm not a fan of Hernandez playing wide or as a line striker though.
Great to see fletch back and really glad he's captaining the team, dunno why but always wanted to see him get the armband at some point, hopefully he can wear it again when he's back on top on his game.
Not sure how that side will line up but I'd be happy enough with Rooney, Hernandez and Welbeck as front three and Anderson, Clev and Fletcher in the centre of the park. They need games in the middle of the park. On the face of it though looks like an eleven picked to get some match fitness and players playing out of position to make it up. Rooney and Welbeck as the wide players in the front three would be my preference for playing be played out of position and it may be interesting to see how this work with RVP and Rooney in mind.
Any reason why this is a 745 KO? Aren't all our home domestic midweek games at 8 usually?
No.
Rooney, Rooney, Rooney!!!
great to see him back
great to see him back
My predictions are usually a jynx so I'm happy to say this but I bet Rooney has the first touch of Heskey's shin tonight.
Would expect Powell's a certainty to come on from that bench for Fletcher. Also one of Lingard, Brady and King to come on for Rooney.
What are the confirmed lineups? Anyone?
Good chance for the guys at the back. With all the injuries we have there's a chance for someone to get regular sub roles in the big PL matches.
Ah, very good, I was confused there.
I really hope we are playing a genuine 4-3-3 but you just know Frogie will be forcing Welbeck or Hernandez to hug the line in his cookie cutter 4-4-2.
via official website;
De Gea; Vermijl, M.Keane, Wootton, Büttner; Fletcher (captain), Cleverley, Anderson; Welbeck, Rooney, Chicharito. Subs: Evans, Johnstone, Lingard, Tunnicliffe, Brady, Powell, King.

Vermijl looked very good with the first team in the Aberdeen testimonial, I expect he'll have a good game.
3-2 United, the real United.
Welbeck out wide again....
Rooney wearing a protective strap on his thigh.
Let's hope our COC effort is long and strong, and not short and shrivelled like last time.
Sir Alex says that we should win if we score more goals than Newcastle.
Yeah, we really need to stand up and stick it in this time.
Random use of a cock joke.
Did he mention it's a game of two halves?
There's no doubt abou' that
I need a river please.
No Sopcast streams for this game??
Stream?
Any one knows a stream that works on an iPad?
My stupid desktop PC is broken and sky Germany doesn't show any COC games I'm afraid.

Me too. PM please.
What was the ticket prices for tonight? Fair few empty seats.
Glad to see Fletcher back and has captain, shocked at seeing Rooney did not think he was fit yet.
I'd prefer Fletcher to play more of a holding role, the young lads could do with his influence there rather than on the right. No Carrick on the bench is interesting for when Fletcher will need subbing.
Is Chicharito STILL a Christian? Jeez.
Any river or waterfalls here? PM please
''Anderson, who's been very out of favour over the last 12 months''
Out of favour, injured. Same thing.
